Electro-pop quartet Sykur have yet to make significant waves in the UK, but in their home country of Iceland they've been big-hitters since 2009.

Originally an all-male trio, the group recently added singer Agnes, who is described as having the "sneering attitude" of Courtney Love mixed with the "disco fabulousness" of Donna Summer.

They released their latest EP 'Mesopotamia' over here on the quiet in April and are hoping to take things up a notch with new single 'Curling', a thumping synth-pop number that will be put out alongside a heap of remixes on August 26.

Ahead of its release, the band have debuted a previously unheard song 'Shed Those Tears', a summery slice of effortless disco-funk that doffs its cap to Daft Punk and Giorgio Moroder. Listen to the track below:

Sykur's current run of UK shows continues at London's Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen on July 31 and wraps up at Bath's Moles.
